Houston blamed the deaths on the failure to construct sturdy buildings and a ferry, but I can't help but think whomever let those hogs loose has some questions to answer.
It was common practice to turn hogs loose to run wild in the river bottoms and collect them when needed. The classic “old yeller” includes a graphic description of the protagonist working free ranging hogs.
These tales are an invaluable asset to anyone doing living history of this period, the mindsets and shear will power of these people is hard to convey and keep in mind at fun events, keeping events like this in mind help keep reenactors accurate
@@bc2578 My point exactly. People generally want to look at things in the most positive light possible, regardless of the reality of the situation. I believe that this is usually a good thing as our world has more than enough violence. However, this isn't an accurate portrayal of human nature, which contains just as much violence and destructiveness as it does kindness and nurturing. Call it the duality of mankind; it transcends race or location.
The conflict with the indigenous peoples of this continent has been far better recorded regarding the texas struggles than in areas further east, which is a good think. However the wars with the Cherokee of Tennessee was very long and very bloody, but very poorly recorded.
Bass Reeves was the real Lone Ranger but that being said if you survived an attack by the Comanche back then you had something to be both grateful and proud of there were some of the greatest Horseman that have ever set foot on the North American continent and fierce Warriors. They were so formidable that Calvary Soldier Weaponry was changed rather rapidly compensate for the fact that the Comanche could get off a lot more arrows accurately find Calvary could get off rounds of ammunition
Always look forward to a new HOKC video
You said it cowpoke. The good stuff

In Texas, it is "pal-es-teen".
Came here to say this
Yes it is. I'm a "Palestinian".😁
The Indian shown at 4.24 is a Cherokee chief, Cunne Shote, who went to England in 1762.

Brilliant video ĺove these stories
Very good - as all of your stories are
Love 💛 this series. Thank you HOKC
amazing story, as usual. thank you!
Thanks for another exciting tale of the Texas
I really enjoy these stories.
I object to the use of the word
"Inhumanity" in that account. The things that happened in Texas at that time were exactly what humans would do.
But "inhumanity" does not mean "non-human," it means, literally, "extremely cruel and brutal behavior," at least, according to the dictionary.
